"The Fourth Prince?!"

Everyone made a commotion and looked at Gawain in disbelief: "Wouldn't it be a betrayal to take refuge in the fourth prince. Betrayal"

"Betraying the Great Prince?" Gawain picked up a Forth Bay brand cigarette and said quietly, "The eldest prince doesn't know where he is at the moment." ”

There was a sudden silence in the room.

Everyone looked at each other, and they couldn't give reasonable advice, because the eldest prince was dead, the Conservatives were leaderless, and now the second prince was in charge, and the Conservatives wanted them to get out of London.

Is there anyone else in London who can help them other than the Four Princes?

Gawain is the backbone of the Benjamin family, although he is young, he has already conquered other family members with his own strength, and he has never missed the direction he has set for the family.

It was also thanks to him that the Benjamin family took the crucial step of setting foot in London.

Now in the face of crisis, everyone is willing to listen to him.

Uncle Sears asks two questions: "Will the fourth prince accept us?" Also, should you discuss this matter with other families? ”

Benjamin was not the only family that set foot in London, the eldest prince gave up a lot of cakes and accepted friends from the north, resulting in a new force in all walks of life, including but not limited to tailors, potions, and minerals.

These northern nobles who came to the south also knew in their hearts that only by uniting could they gain more benefits, and they had already formed an alliance to advance and retreat together.

And Gawain is the key to convincing them.

"Of course, you have to say hello to the other families first."

Gawain lifted the quilt and said as he put on his coat, "I'll go find them." ”

"Do you want to go now?" Aunt Colette worried: "You just got injured, you should rest more"

"The priest's magic works."

Gawain patted the bloodstained bandage on his head, and said in a calm tone: "I've recovered, don't worry, Uncle Sears, you are an elder, come with me." ”

"Okay."

In the afternoon of the same day, Gawain and his uncle Sears went to the residential area of the northern aristocracy in London, and the first person they visited was Baron Sanford of the Vinci family.

"Russell! It's really good that you're okay! ”

Baron Sanford warmly welcomed Gawain and Sears, and even gave a veneer salute: "I heard that you are injured, and I am going to visit you!" ”

"It's just some skin trauma."

"We're in some trouble," Gawain said. ”

"It's the Kore Gang, right? They are so hateful! Baron Sanford said sternly: "Don't worry, I have mobilized a group of very capable young men from the north, they will arrive in London tomorrow, as long as they have them, the Kore Gang will not dare to do anything to us!" ”

With a frown, Gawain noticed that Baron Sanford seemed to have guessed the meaning of his visit.

Obviously, Baron Sanford had already received the news that he had been injured at the construction site, so there were only two possibilities for Gawain to visit:

1. Organize manpower to fight to the death with the Kore Gang.

2. Avoid head-to-head confrontation, exit London or seek other ways out.

It is impossible to withdraw from London, and the northern aristocracy has finally set foot in the southern economic circle, how can they retreat so easily?

Since it is impossible, there is only one possibility left to seek another way out.

The Conservatives have been plotting lately to drive the northern aristocracy out of London and take back the lost cake, and they are unlikely to help.

The Kore Gang is the lackeys of the Liberal Party, and if they are suddenly targeted, they must have received orders from the Liberal Party, and it is impossible to count on the Liberal Party.

Who else can help them in the great city of London?

Four Princes, Arthur!

This result is not difficult to guess, at least Baron Sanford guessed, so he used the reason of mobilizing a group of lads to prevaricate Gawain.

He did not want to join Labour.

The Labour Party is a voice for the workers, and he is a businessman with a natural aversion to the Labour Party, and in the previous strikes, Sanford suffered a lot of losses, not only paying many liquidated damages, but also giving workers a wage increase and being forced to arrange dormitories and canteens

Who is responsible for such a huge loss?

Arthur!

Now let yourself throw yourself into the past with a shy face, won't you become a kneeling begging for food?

When pigs fly!

Sanford expressed his willingness to fight, but also to prove that he would not defect to the Labour Party, and that he would resist the Corey gang in his own way.

Gawain didn't persuade much, said a few more pleasantries, turned around and left the villa.

They then visited the Mackintosh Councillor next door, the Mackintosh family was in the liquor trade and was inspired to sell brandy made from the North to the southern market, and the blue brand that Levine often drank was a commodity of the Mackintosh family business.

Unpleasant, bitter, but cheap and easily drunk.

Councillor Mackintosh was more patient than Baron Sanford, and he did not rush to express his opinion, but after listening carefully to Gawain's thoughts, he asked out loud: "Russell, do you think Baron Sanford can resist the Corley Gang?" ”

"I can't."

"But I heard that he had brought together hundreds of thugs from the north, all of them gang members, to come to London as bakers."

"It's useless." Gawain shook his head slowly: "That's just a number, behind the Kore Gang is the Liberal Party, and behind the Liberal Party is the church, we don't have a church background, and we don't have the support of the prime minister."

"By the way, didn't Prime Minister Nicholas punish the Kore Gang two days ago? How about we ask him for help? ”

"Congressman Mackintosh, what do you think is Prime Minister Nicholas's signal to punish the Corey Gang?"

"I don't know."

"Prime Minister Nicholas punished the Kore Gang, most likely because the Kore Gang's recent behavior went too far, that is, the Liberal MPs did too much of an outrageous act, and they were punished."

Gawain said: "This has nothing to do with us, it belongs to the internal strife of the Liberal Party, and Prime Minister Nicholas is unlikely to help us." ”

"If you want to gain a foothold in London, you must have the support of the Church, and the fourth prince is very close to Archbishop Fowler, they have known each other as early as New Russia, and they have a deep relationship, and it is the best choice to join him at present."

Both the Conservatives and the Liberals want to drive the northern forces out of London, which is a very normal xenophobia.

The new king has just been born, he is healthy, young, and he can still be the king for at least a few decades, and there is no need to run for the king in the short term.

No one can help them, except the Four Princes.

Councillor Mackintosh was still a little hesitant, he knew that the situation was very unfavorable, but he still had a glimmer of hope that if the northern boys brought by Baron Sanford could defeat the Corley Gang, they would not need to take refuge in anyone!

Seeing that he couldn't make a choice for a long time, Gawain didn't force it, got up and said, "Baron Sanford will fail, let's continue to talk after he fails." ”

Next, Gawain and Sears visited more than a dozen northern councillors one after another, except for one or two who were willing to join the fourth prince, the others were either resolute or wanted to see the situation again.

Who wants to give up their dignity and be a dog if not without a choice?

Ma Wei, who got the news, just smiled.

It's hard to persuade damn ghosts with good words.

Luck psychology is a very wonderful thing, people will always fantasize about a small probability of events happening to them, feel that they are the chosen one, so as to make some irreparable moves, and often regret afterwards.

This is also the reason why the prostitution is not persuaded to gamble, and the prostitution is not paid.

Gamblers will regret it, prostitutes will not, they will only be unsatisfied.

At noon the next day, a train from the north pulled into King's Cross Station, and at the sound of the whistle, young men with packages on their backs stepped off the train, most of them in their teens and thirties.

Their arrival also attracted the attention of the station police, who came forward to interrogate them, and they all said that they were bakers and had come to apply.

The procedures are complete and legal, and the police did not embarrass them, followed them to the bakery, and actually started the interview, and the content of the interview was very simple, just report your name and the position you are applying for, you can get a white uniform, which is considered to be a job.

Looking at these young and strong young men who are absolutely capable of fighting, Baron Sanford smiled, he had already prepared his weapons, revolvers, sticks, machetes, everything, hundreds of people were fully armed, even the police were not afraid to come.

However, they were greeted not by the Kore, but by the Royal Navy.

As night fell, the Royal Navy surrounded the bakery, as if receiving news in advance, and directly launched a surprise attack, and in the face of the army, Baron Sanford was directly dumbfounded.

Ordinary parliamentarians do not have the power to mobilize the army!

The mobilization of the army requires a personal order from the Prime Minister!

Other words

It was none other than Prime Minister Nicholas who wanted to drive them out of London!

Baron Sanford's heart instantly cooled.

Against the Liberal Party, he still has the confidence to break his wrists, but if he competes with the prime minister.

It is absolutely impossible to win.

Moreover, the prime minister had the unanimous support of the king and the church, Nicholas von Manstein!

What is it called?

Caesaropapism!

Dare to go against him, it's just impatient!

With a gunshot, Baron Sanford reacted and hurriedly asked the young men behind him to put down their weapons and surrender obediently.

The Royal Navy is not a vegetarian, it should be said that the gangsters are very difficult to compete with the army!

There may be exceptions in areas of extreme chaos, but in a developed country like the Kingdom of Windsor, the army is the ceiling of combat power!

To fight is to die!

Surprisingly, the Royal Navy only collected the weapons and did not arrest anyone, and before leaving, the naval officer patted Baron Sanford on the shoulder, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was meaningful.

Baron Sanford was stunned in place for ten minutes, because

As soon as the Royal Navy left on the front foot, the Kore Gang came to the door on the back foot.

Empty handed.

The weapons have been taken away, how to fight?

Baron Sanford surrendered, or rather collapsed, and he had expected it to be a hard-fought battle, as a result

It turned out to be a duel between primitive people and modern weapons.

No, not as good as primitives.

Primitive people have stone tools, they only have two hands!

O iniquity!

In the face of the surrendered Baron Sanford, the Kore brothers did not rush to kill them all, but let them live according to Mavi's orders.

The condition is to get out of London within a week.

After all, it is a few hundred people, and it is unrealistic to kill them all, let alone a baron.

Baron Sanford's defeat soon reached the ears of the Northern Councillors, who fell silent when they learned that hundreds of good boys had surrendered.

They don't know what to say.

It was a premeditated move, but the other party was smarter than them, anticipating what they might be doing, and using their power to complete the crush.

There was no chance of fighting back at all.

If they go back to the north, they certainly don't fear the sesame face from the south, which is their territory, just as London is to the Conservatives and the Liberals.

But this is London.

After a night of reflection, Gawain welcomed several guests and expressed his willingness to join the Fourth Prince, as long as the Fourth Prince allowed them to continue doing business in London.

Doing business in London is a dream for many businessmen, although it is not full of gold, but there are many more opportunities and more money than other regions, and more importantly, staying in London means that you have the opportunity to step into a higher level, no longer just a country bun aristocracy.

The real 'expensive' can only be reflected when you come to London.

Faced with the opportunity to change the fate of the family, many people are willing to bow their heads and be obedient dogs.

If there are dogs, there will naturally be wolves, and it should be said that the nobles who are willing to be dogs are a minority, and more are the nobles who are unwilling to bow their heads, and they would rather leave London, or die hard, than take refuge in the fourth prince.

Originally, the eldest prince invited them to London in order to gain their support.

Now, they went to join the fourth prince, but the fourth prince didn't need the votes in their hands, as long as they were obedient.

One is qualified to negotiate, and the other can only be obedient, which is very different.

In the north, you are used to being a master, and suddenly you have to listen to others, and some people must not be able to accept it.

If you want to fight to the end, Gawain will not stop him, his task has been completed, this is a screening, those ambitious unstable elements have been exposed, and that is enough.

The willing councillors and nobles had a meeting with Gawain, and after careful discussion, Gawain approached Arthur with their terms.

"They want to stay in London, not downsize, and no longer be harassed by the gangs"

Listening to the conditions of the Northern Councilor, Arthur smiled: "You go and tell them that I can agree to these requests." ”

"Don't you need them to do anything?"

"Dogs are such things, as long as they are obedient and don't bite people indiscriminately."

Arthur sipped his wine and said calmly, "We have taken away their backbones and turned them into wagging tails and begging dogs, the purpose has been achieved, of course we must give some benefits." ”

Gawain nodded: "What about the priest's side?" ”

"That's what he meant, the capitalists can't be killed, at least not yet, if they are killed, there will be new capitalists appear, in this case, why don't we let the capitalists who have been domesticated reproduce?"

Arthur's eyes narrowed:

"Obedient, obedient is fine"
